EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative image captured by Arsenal's official photographer Stuart MacFarlane, we find Arsenal's star duo, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Bernd Leno, preparing for the crucial Premier League clash against Brighton & Hove Albion at an empty American Express Community Stadium. The photograph, taken on December 29, 2020, encapsulates the unique atmosphere of football during the Covid-19 pandemic, as fans were barred from attending matches in person. The image showcases Aubameyang, the team's captain and leading goalscorer, donning his Arsenal jersey and focusing intently on the game plan. Leno, the goalkeeper, stands beside him, adjusting his gloves and looking determined. The contrasting expressions on their faces convey the intensity and focus required for a high-stakes football match. The empty stadium, devoid of the usual sea of supporters, creates a surreal backdrop for the pre-match preparations. The absence of fans adds a sense of isolation and underlines the challenges faced by players and staff during these unprecedented times. Despite the unusual circumstances, Aubameyang and Leno remain undeterred, their commitment to their team and the game evident in their body language. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the unique challenges and adaptations the football world has had to make in response to the global health crisis. It also highlights the resilience and determination of players and staff to continue competing at the highest level, even in the face of adversity. This powerful image encapsulates the spirit of football during the pandemic, offering a glimpse into the world behind the scenes as Arsenal prepares for the Brighton clash.
